Wedgwood Cottage DIY Hi, I’m Sally! I’m solo DIY renovating my 1920s Dutch Colonial home and garden - follow along!

Send this to someone who needs to do a whimsical DIY project!

The number of people who called me insane during various stages of this project - that’s just dedication and a dream, babes! (And willful disregard for my sleep schedule and neck pain)

Good design is worth the time to execute well! You can’t ChatGPT your way out of doing the actual work - magic requires effort 🤌🏻 and in this case a small toddler’s worth of Scotch Painter's Tape Pro sharp lines tape

Happy Father’s Day Bruce O'Brien - thanks for always being down for a project, especially when your rather stubborn daughter insists on doing it her way 😉 I’ve learned so much from you over the years, but I think the best lesson is to keep trying until you figure it out 😊

Still some filler and caulk and cleanup to go, but I’m pretty sure this pantry is about to become my absolute favorite room in the house! At

What started as a “quick makeover before the replacement washing machine gets delivered” has turned into a 3 month intense redo of the pantry/laundry where I challenged myself to let my whimsy show to fill advantage - swipe to see where I started!

Not only a pink and white pantry, but one with a gingham ceiling done in proportion to a daring scallop trim that coordinated beautifully with the scalloped/beaded glass on the ceiling light, which matches the beadboard (wallpaper) covered walls

I do so love it when a plan comes together 💕🙌🏻

What do you think!

💖SWIPE💖 Only a few more steps to go to finish my pink gingham ceiling (cure time, taping off where the darker pink squares go, painting the darker pink squares x2, touch ups as needed, crown moulding) but wow it’s come a long way from soot stained crumbling plaster 😅

👉🏻take a walk back through this project so far!

This ceiling was inspired by a pink gingham wallpaper I discovered (painted white 😭) on the powder room ceiling that had a corresponding pink and green gingham daisy wallpaper (scrap found under the sink) on the walls. Want to see them?
